"Grandpa Huang must be hiding something from me."

Zhu Ming looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who was trying to persuade him with a bitter face, but he couldn't understand why he didn't let him go.

Could it be related to one's own life experience?

If you think about it carefully, you are an outsider. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang feels sorry for you, there is no need for him to raise you personally and treat you so well.

From the moment doubts arose, everything around me that was originally taken for granted became so suspicious.

"how could be?"

Zhu Ming's repeated questioning made Zhu Yuanzhang even more embarrassed.

Come on, now is not the time.

Let’s not talk about it. He was worried about letting Zhu Ming go to the Eastern Palace.

"Liu Jin, go tell the people in the East Palace that I will go to the banquet tomorrow."

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was hesitant to speak, Zhu Ming became more suspicious. He turned around and asked Liu Jin to go out and tell the people in the Eastern Palace in a serious manner.

"Don't go."

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang also turned around, glared at Liu Jin and shouted at him harshly.

"You are mine, listen to me."

"I am the emperor, listen to me!"

The grandfather and grandson just stared at each other, but neither could convince the other.

Only Liu Jin looked at Zhu Ming for a while, then at Zhu Yuanzhang for a while. He couldn't afford to offend either side, and didn't even have the courage to speak out to appease them.

"Grandpa Emperor, either you tell me the truth, or I will go to the East Palace and ask it myself."

Zhu Ming saw that it was no use continuing the argument, so he simply threw out the two options and made his point final.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately fell silent. If he told this matter to others and it got out, it would be even harder to defend against that person plotting against Zhu Ming.

After a long silence, Zhu Yuanzhang finally sighed.

"You can go, but you have to be careful about everything."

He looked at Zhu Ming helplessly. After becoming the emperor, he was not as free as before for the sake of the world.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang finally compromised, Zhu Ming was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would let him go to the Eastern Palace.

"I'll find out tomorrow."

He lowered his head and responded in a low voice.

"Liu Jin."

Zhu Ming turned around and looked at Liu Jin again, and his eyes understood.

This time he did not make things difficult. He glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang and then retreated silently.

"My dear grandson, you just need to know that your royal grandfather will not harm you."

Zhu Yuanzhang finally looked at Zhu Ming helplessly, sighed, stood up and walked out of the side yard.

Zhu Ming looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's back and felt sad for no reason.

Old Zhu is old after all.

But you still have to find out about your own life experience yourself.

I can't just go on living in this muddle.

"Oh, the boy will come tomorrow?"

When Mrs. Lu heard the news from the servants, she was a little excited but also a little suspicious.

If Your Majesty really knew the child's background, why would he allow Zhu Ming to be his guest?

What are these two people thinking?

Not only Lu had doubts in his heart, Zhu Ming, who agreed to come, was also feeling uneasy.

Although Lu was the Crown Princess, she would not do anything to herself in public.

Just like ghosts, everyone knows they don’t exist, but everyone is still afraid of them.

Zhu Ming lay in bed all night without sleeping.

It was not until the next morning that Zhu Ming sat up from the bed, feeling quite annoyed.

"Never mind. We'll work things out when the time comes."

He shook his head, calmed himself down a little, then washed up and changed his clothes.

After all, you are going to the East Palace, so you still have to put in some effort to show your abilities.

"Liu Jin, let's go."

After everything was ready, Zhu Ming turned around, glanced at Liu Jin who was serving behind him, and strode out the door.

"My dear grandson, don't drink or eat anything when you get there, got it?"

As soon as he walked out of the side courtyard, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, came up and started to give instructions with a worried look on his face.

That Lu family did all kinds of things to kill people and silence them. Zhu Ming was lucky enough to survive.

Now that he is back in the tiger's mouth, he is really worried.

"Got it, Grandpa Huang."

Zhu Ming also responded seriously. Old Zhu's concern is always genuine.

"Let's go, Liu Jin."

After looking at Zhu Yuanzhang again, Zhu Ming headed out of the Daming Palace.

Looking at the back of his beloved grandson, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to persuade him again, but then he remembered Zhu Ming's stubborn look yesterday, and finally gave up.

It would be good to let him go, just consider it as exercise.

If I become an emperor in the future, it will be very tiring to deal with the intrigues with the ministers in the court.

When Zhu Ming walked away, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression suddenly changed, and he started scolding in a cold manner towards an empty place.

"Let the Royal Guards keep a close eye on him. If our grandson loses even a hair, he won't survive."

After the words fell, no one responded, only a rustling of the wind.

Mrs. Lu, if you dare to harm my beloved grandson again, you're done.

"Please tell the Crown Princess that the little grandson Zhu Ming is here to pay his respects."

Zhu Ming walked to the gate of the East Palace, looked well-behaved again, and bowed to the eunuch guarding the gate.

In name, the Crown Princess is my elder, and since this is the first time she has invited me, I have to give her face.

When the gatekeeper eunuch saw that it was the little grandson of the emperor who came, he did not dare to stop him. He greeted Zhu Ming and walked in. After letting Zhu Ming sit down, he went to report.

Zhu Ming looked around and saw that the cakes and tea were already prepared. It seemed that Mrs. Lu had already given instructions yesterday.

"My little grandson, I finally see you."

Not long after, Mrs. Lu came out from the inner room, looked at Zhu Ming with a kind look, and greeted him with a smile.

As he said this, he glanced at Zhu Ming without leaving a trace and was shocked.

This child does look somewhat like Zhu Biao.

Could it be such a coincidence that the child was really saved by Zhu Yuanzhang?

"Junior Zhu Ming greets the Crown Princess."

Seeing this, Zhu Ming also stood up and bowed to Lu.

"We are a family, there is no need for so many etiquette."

Mrs. Lu also smiled and waved at Zhu Ming, telling him not to be so reserved.

If others saw this, they would probably misunderstand how much they loved each other.

"Crown Princess, I wonder what's the matter with inviting Zhu Ming here?"

Zhu Ming didn't want to waste time talking nonsense, so he asked directly.

The Crown Princess invited me here, so there must be something going on.

"That's right. I saw that you were very quick-witted at the last dinner, so I wanted to check you out."

As the Crown Princess spoke, she walked closer to Zhu Ming, stretched out her hand, and wanted to touch Zhu Ming's head.

Zhu Ming dodged back and quietly distanced himself from the Crown Princess.

He had no good feelings towards the Crown Princess and seemed somewhat resistant to such intimate actions.

The Crown Princess's hand froze and she withdrew it awkwardly.
